Paraguay's stock has significantly fallen in recent years, but we expect them to be highly motivated to return to winning ways after losing their last three matches. The visitors are likely to be demotivated after already losing two friendlies within the past week, especially having been removed from the Gold Cup, which these friendlies were arranged in preparation for.
